Hotel Eden Palace au Lac
Belle-Epoque lakefront living with a garden pool
About this hotel
Hotel Eden Palace au Lac's 1896 origins show in its Belle-Epoque architecture and genuine lakefront position, a 5-minute walk from Montreux train station that keeps the daily Aquaparc commute short despite the historic setting. The garden with a small pool gives families a low-key, on-site swim option between water park visits, a genuine rest-day amenity that many similarly priced Montreux hotels do not offer. The lakeside terrace restaurant, run under the Chez Gaston name, serves refined cuisine for evenings when a proper sit-down dinner feels right after a day of slides and splash pools. Rooms offer views of the lake, city, or mountains depending on configuration, giving families some choice at booking rather than a single standard outlook. Free Wi-Fi throughout rounds out a stay that combines heritage character with genuinely useful family amenities.
- Built in 1896
- Garden pool on site
- 5 minutes to the station

Our take
Hotel Eden Palace au Lac suits families who want Belle-Epoque character, a lakefront position near the station, and a garden pool for rest days between Aquaparc visits. Families who specifically want a lake view in every single room without exception should confirm room category carefully, as views vary by configuration here.
- ✓Request a lake-view room specifically at booking, since views vary between lake, city, and mountain depending on room category.
- ✓Use the garden pool on a rest day between Aquaparc visits rather than only during arrival or departure days.
- ✓Book a table at the Chez Gaston lakeside terrace restaurant for at least one refined evening during your stay.
Why we love it

Why guests love itHotel Eden Palace au Lac is an 1896 Belle-Epoque building on the lakefront, five minutes' walk from Montreux station, which keeps the daily Aquaparc trip simple. The garden with a small pool is what I'd use on a rest day between water park visits, and Chez Gaston's lakeside terrace suits one more refined dinner. Views vary between lake, city and mountains, so I'd request a lake-view room when booking.
